    Player Watch Player Watch: Richarlison

    As has been said by others, I think he’s best suited to our system and style and offers cover to both Son and Kane. As great a player as Raphina is, Richarlison is what we need more just now imo. Or you know, both ?

    Gabriel Jesus

    I reckon you’re bang on here. Osimhen, Vlahovic and even Isak were concerning signings. Blowing their load on Jesus is a brilliant waste of money.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 24th June 2022

    I’ve not seen that, I was largely going off the comments around Conte wanting the main players in by Korea - and I’m assuming that Spence is likely going to be a starter. So long as it gets done then we’re happy obviously but I’m nervy on that one!

    Going by the Twitter mob it appears they have signed prime R9

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 24th June 2022

    Concerned there’s no mention of RWB and specifically Spence, that is pivotal long term to get a pacey option in that position and it feels like one that should be fairly easy to get over the line. Slight PTSD hearing it’s Levy dealing on that one and it’s the one that’s dragging out…

    Team v Crystal Palace

    This game will be difficult enough as it is, feels like we get Palace away midday more often than not, usually leads to a grind of a game. With all of the injuries and Palace potentially having Edouard ready to put the chances away it could be a difficult afternoon

    So Gil went off injured as well…this is ludicrous

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    He joined at a really bad time, Poch era ended, Jose essentially publicly bullied him. He had to adapt to a new country and language during a pandemic leading to his only two friends really being Sissoko and Aurier who are now likely off. He will be feeling isolated. He’s barely played in front...

    Harry Kane

    He has essentially called out us - the supporters - I don’t know how he comes back from that. I’ve lost all respect for him, the only thing that makes me want him to stay is that there is no clear alternative out there. If we could guarantee right now we could sign a semi decent striker I’d...

    Stats insight into Spurs defending

    The issue with Mason was it wasn't his style nor his role. It was Bentalebs as he is the deeper of the two. Although for me the blame lies with Poch who should be clear in which of the two has the defensive role, as generally neither seemed to fully sit deeper and instead took turns. Imo that's...

    Stats insight into Spurs defending

    Off the top of my head, Southampton away we struggled with long balls and a major issue, along with Vertonghen being generally poor, was that none of the DMs were anywhere near to winning the second ball/closing the space of the following up player in the '2nd phase'. Edit: Effectively what...
